Hi everybody, and welcome to our 5th pre-season match thread..
Tonight we travel up Essex and a match at The Jobserve Community Stadium which is the home of Colchester United FC, where Ipswich Town will be our hosts, relegated from The Premier League last year Ipswich should prove challenging opponents tonight, but we should provide some stiff opposition to them also shouldn't we, and more than capable of coming home with a draw, but maybe a win?
Tonight we could start to see a bit more of a settled side from Nathan with the new season only 11 days away, also we all know Godden and Berry are going to be absent, but this could also be a chance to get our first glimpse of Kelman, probably from the bench in the second half??.
It would be good to start the first half with as close as possible a first 11and swap things around a bit after 60 minutes, which seems to be the pre-season plan so far.
I know it's all about minutes in legs and all that, but might be time to start strong...,Audio only tonight, which is very annoying and not easy to follow in my opinion, anyway, we shall see, team...

Be interesting to see if Burke is still injured or not.
Ipswich recently are one of the most successful EFL teams until their plunge back down from the Premier last season. They will/should be a good benchmark.
No prediction, as said, it'll all depend on team selections
Had a look Ipswich squad and they haven't bought many in but have retained a fair amount of players from last season so will be tough game for us for sure.

https://www.charltonafc.com/news/watch-wealdstone-friendly-live-charltontvMaybe something to do with Colchester hosting the game at their JobsWorth stadium ...... maybe they are hoping to attract their own local U's fans to boost attendance? 🤔
I'll leave it at that because this isn't very interesting for everyone else is it?
We could win and be relegated by Christmas, we could lose and make the playoffs.
